  The following documents are available as reference to new and experienced users alike.  It is very important to 
  understand the spreadsheet format for meeting data, calendar data, and store data.  Please reference all documentation 
  before administering any portion of the A.A. web site.<br><br>

  <b>-- Why do we need a specific format?</b><br>
     <p>Although it seems burdensome, a specified meeting format allows for a single source of data which can be 
        easily used in many different ways.  In our case, the single source of meetings is a spreadsheet titled
        "meeting_data.xls" which is maintained by Central Office.  Usage scenarios for this data will vary from updating 
	the web site to providing a PDF to the printer for published schedules.</p><br>

  <b>-- How is the format validated?</b><br>
     <p>Data is validated by uploading spreadsheet files to the server and running the validation
        process.  It is a simple process that is easily followed online.  The validation process informs the user
        of formatting errors.  If errors are encountered, simply locate the row with errors in the spreadsheet,
        correct them, and upload the spreadsheet file once again for validation.  Please contact the
        developers if you find formatting errors that are not detected by the validation process.  We will use
        your feedback to improve the validation process.</p><br>

   <b>-- This really seems like a lot of trouble.  Is it necessary?</b><br>
     <p>The bottom line is yes, a specified format is necessary.  It will help to safeguard the website and printed
        schedules from common errors and provide a more reliable process of maintaining and publishing data 
        from end-to-end.</p><br>
